Robotics Technology Advances Artificial Legs
From: Medical Design Briefs - 11/20/2013

Recent advances in robotics technology enables prosthetics that can
dramatically improve the mobility of lower-limb amputees, allowing them to
negotiate stairs and slopes and uneven ground, and significantly reducing
their risk of falling, say a team of engineers at Vanderbilt University’s
Center for Intelligent Mechatronics, Nashville, TN.
